Living near the beach, I don't ever really see much reason to leave Ocean County and head to North Jersey. Beaches? Check. Bars and restaurants? Check. Fun and entertainment? Check.

However, sometimes something does come along that'll make me want to change my tune.

A New, One-Of-A-Kind Interactive Gaming Facility Is Coming To NJ

And something is coming to Paraumus that may make me hit the Parkway, and head North to the Garden State Plaza.

A new, one-of-a-kind, interactive, social-gaming experience will be taking the place of the former Forever 21 in the Paza.

Think Dave and Busters, meets and escape room, meets a trampoline park, meets parkour.

According to northjersey.com, Level99 is getting ready to open its very first New Jersey location.

Level99 is basically like American Ninja Warrior, but for the everyday person like you and me; each location features 50 mental and physical challenges, different rooms, and different fun challenges.

The swinging axes look like the most fun challenges, in my opinion.

When Will Level99 Open In Paramus, NJ?

Level99 currently operates in Rhode Island, Massachusetts, and Virginia, and the New Jersey location will be coming to the Garden State Plaza sometime in 2027.

In addition to all of the fun games and challenges that Level99 brings, they also have a full bar and a restaurant, much like Dave and Busters.

How Much Does It Cost To Go To Level99?

And if you're wondering how much a day of fun at a place like Level99 costs, it varies from location and what time of day you visit, but on average, a 2-hour session is $30, a 4-hour session is $40, and an all-day session is $50.
